I have this hole in the side of my car

I was going to use this hole and ducked it to the side vent on the outside but I was thinking the side vents might be a bit low on the side of the car. and this might suck in water

I made a jig so when I removed the shaft I could see where to line the new hole for the pivot shaft
I filed the hole in with some steal and re-drilled the hole in the new position

Post Re: Paul's k3
you can see on the plate which holds the clutch and brake master cylinder
the clutch is now not in line with the brake
as I have moved the pivot point back
I filled in the hole with some steal and move the hole dawn to line up with the brake pivot point

Nice work. The difference in pedal ratio is massive! no wonder we have to stand on them! (assume its a similar ratio for the Spyder)

Paul.

When you installed the VVC engine and box, did you use the MGF gear cables and shifter, and if so, did you need to modify anything and/or cut off the shifter balance weight?

hi I did you use the MGF gear cables and shifter, all I did to my one was put some threaded rod in the 4 holes in the corners

I did cut off the shifter balance weight?

works ok in my car you just need to check there are two different cable setups on the gearbox end the Gearbox Gear Selector Linkage Brackets I think
